Transport Now and Then

It was not always that easy to travel to places. 

We know that people didnt always have cars and airplanes to get around.  Journeys took much longer and they were not very comfortable.

We learned the name of this funny looking bike.

We compared this picture of one of the first cars ever made to the cars we have today. 

We noticed some very interesting comparisons. 

Ask us who these two brothers are.
They invented something very important. Ask us and we will tell you what it is. 

Here is a  hint

The Vin Fiz

Making Rice Crispie Buns

We were learning about things that change in heat, cold and water. 

We learned chocolate melts when heated, it changes shape and texture.

Then when you cool the chocolate it changes again. 

Word Bingo

We have learned alot of words now.  We love to play word bingo with all these words.  We need to listen very carefully to hear the word teacher calls out and then cover it over.  Our favourite bit is shouting BINGO at the end. 

Things that change in water

We learned that alot of things change in different conditions.  Some things melt when they are heated.  Some things turn to a hard substance when cooled, and other things change when the come in contact with water.  We tested a variety of things in water and observed the changes.  Some changed colour, some shape and others texture. 

Ask us what things change in water. 

Heavy and light

With lots of practice, we are now very good at picking items that are heavy and light compared to each other. 
Now we are trying to balance the scale with things that way the exact same.  It turns out Alyssa's shoe and Sarah's shoe make our scale balance. 

Storyteller

Today we enjoyed a story from a wonderful story teller. 

Aisteoir is fearr

We are very very proud to have a boy in our junior infant class scoop the prize for best actor.  Tonight darren went to the awards and recieved a lovely trophy.
